A Brief Survey of DSM5, ICD-10-11 and PDM for practitioners

1. A Brief Survey of DSM5, ICD-10-11 and PDMfor practitioners LVPCA 2013 Robert M. Gordon, Ph.D. ABPP in Clinical Psychology and Psychoanalysis

2. Outline • What is diagnosis and why diagnose? • Changes in DSM 5 and Does It Matter? • The ICD 10 and ICD 11 • The PDM- a personality centered approach, • Participate in an exercise on diagnostic formulation.

3. The term “Diagnosis” is derived from Greek- meaning a distinguishing, to perceive, to know thoroughly.

4. What is Missing?

5. In 1854, after a major outbreak of cholera struck London, John Snow, a physician linked the outbreak to contaminated water from this hand pump on Broadwick Street. He removed the handle and stopped the epidemic

6. Start with a good diagnostic formulation “Once I have a good feel for the person, the work is going well, I stop thinking diagnostically and simply immerse myself in the unique relationship that unfolds between me and the client…one can throw away the book and savor individual uniqueness.” Nancy McWilliams (2011) Psychoanalytic Diagnosis: Understanding Personality Structure in the Clinical Process, Second Edition.

7. Main Reasons for Diagnosing 1. Its usefulness for treatment planning. “Understanding character styles help the therapist be more careful with boundaries with a histrionic patient, more pursuant of the flat affect with the obsessional person, and more tolerant of silence with a schizoid client.” 2. Its implications for prognosis. “Realistic goals protect patients from the demoralization and therapist from burnout.”

8. Why Diagnose? 3. Its value in enabling the therapist to convey empathy. Once one knows that a depressed patient also has a borderline rather neurotic level personality structure, the therapist will not be surprised if during the second year of treatment she makes a suicide gesture. Or once a borderline client starts to have hope of real change, that the borderline client often panics and flirts with suicide in an effort to protect himself from traumatic disappointment.

9. Why Diagnose? • Its role in reducing the probability that certain easily frighten people will flee from treatment. It is helpful for the therapist to communicate to hypomanic or counter-dependent patients an understanding of how hard it may be for them to stay in therapy.

10. Why Diagnose? 5. Its value in risk management. Often therapists mistakenly use a presenting symptom as the only diagnosis and missed the borderline level of personality or psychopathic personality and got into trouble. 6. It’s value in process and outcome research.

11. Personality Structure and Treatment • McWilliams points out that for many neurotic level people, the best time to make interpretations is when the patient is a state of emotional arousal, so that the patient is less likely to intellectualize the affect. • With borderline clients, who require a supportive approach, the opposite consideration applies, because when they are very upset, it is hard for them to take anything in.

12. Personality Organization Related to Psychotherapy Issues • Koelen, et al (2012) identified 18 studies that suggest that higher initial levels of personality organization are moderately to strongly associated with better treatment outcome. • And some studies suggest that personality organization may interact with the type of intervention (i.e., interpretive versus supportive) in predicting treatment outcome. • Koelen JA, Luyten P, Eurelings-Bontekoe LH, Diguer L, Vermote R, Lowyck B, Bühring ME. (2012). The impact of level of personality organization on treatment response: a systematic review. Psychiatry, 75(4), 355-374

13. Why have competence in diagnoses?9.01 Bases for Assessments “(a) Psychologists base the opinions contained in their recommendations, reports, and diagnostic or evaluative statements, including forensic testimony, on information and techniques sufficient to substantiate their findings.” This includes interview, assessments and diagnostic taxonomies that pass the Frye Test, i.e. DSM, ICD and PDM.

14. “I have often served as an expert witness in malpractice cases where psychologists had missed the psychopathic or borderline traits in patients. The DSM classifies antisocial and borderline personality disorders by precise and narrow symptoms. This is often misleading. Psychopathy can be a complex personality pattern that combines with or is obscured by other personality patterns, and borderline can be viewed as an entire level of personality organization that can be applied to the various personality disorders.” Gordon, R.M., (2007) PDM Valuable in Identifying High-Risk Patients. The National Psychologist, 16, 6, November/December, page 4.

24. The Proposal is Rejected by APA

27. Why Will DSM-5 Cost $199 a Copy? By Allen Frances, M.D. 1/24/13 Huffington Post DSM-5 has just announced its price -- an incredible $199 • First, APA has sunk more than $25 million into DSM-5 and wants to recoup as much of its investment as it can. • DSM-IV cost one fifth as much -- just $5 million -- of which half came from external grants. • APA is probably counting on having captive buyers who are forced to pay its price, however exorbitant it may be. • DSM-5 boycotts are sprouting up all over the place • The codes clinicians need for insurance purposes are available for free on the internet • DSM-5 is so clunkily written, no teacher will ever want to assign it to students • People are not likely to rush out to buy a ridiculously expensive DSM-5 that has already been discredited as unsafe and scientifically unsound. • The exorbitant price for DSM-5 will be just another reason, were any needed, for buyers to abandon it.

28. The International Classification of Diseases • The ICD is currently the most widely used statistical classification system for diseases in the world. • This is in fact the official diagnostic system for mental disorders in the US. • The ICD-10, was developed in 1992. • ICD-11 is planned for 2015.

29. ICD is Required by HIPPA • The deadline for the United States to begin using Clinical Modification ICD-10-Clinical Modification (CM) is currently October 1, 2014. • The deadline was previously October 1, 2011, then October 1, 2013.

30. ICD-10 mental and behavioural disorders consists of 10 main groups: F0: Organic, including symptomatic, mental disorders F1: Mental and behavioural disorders due to use of psychoactive substances F2: Schizophrenia, schizotypal and delusional disorders F3: Mood [affective] disorders F4: Neurotic, stress-related and somatoform disorders F5: Behavioural syndromes associated with physiological disturbances and physical factors F6: Disorders of personality and behaviour in adult persons F7: Mental retardation F8: Disorders of psychological development F9: Behavioural and emotional disorders with onset usually occurring in childhood and adolescence In addition, a group of "unspecified mental disorders".

31. ICD 10 Disorders of adult personality and behavior F60 Specific personality disorders F60.0 Paranoid personality disorder F60.1 Schizoid personality disorder F60.2 Dissocial personality disorder F60.3 Emotionally unstable personality disorder .30 Impulsive type .31 Borderline type F60.4 Histrionic personality disorder F60.5 Anankastic personality disorder (i.e. OCPD) F60.6 Anxious [avoidant] personality disorder F60.7 Dependent personality disorder F60.8 Other specific personality disorders F60.9 Personality disorder, unspecified F61 Mixed and other personality disorders F61.0 Mixed personality disorders F61.1 Troublesome personality changes

32. ICD 10 and Borderline • “After initial hesitation, a brief description of borderline personality disorder (F60.31) was finally included as a subcategory of emotionally unstable personality disorder (F60.3), again in the hope of stimulating investigations.”

33. F60.3  Emotionally unstable personality disorder marked tendency to act impulsively without consideration of the consequences, together with affective instability. The ability to plan ahead may be minimal, and outbursts of intense anger may often lead to violence or "behavioral explosions"; • F60.30 Impulsive typeemotional instability and lack of impulse control, Outbursts of violence or threatening behavior are common, particularly in response to criticism by others. • Includes: explosive and aggressive personality (disorder) Excludes: dissocial personality disorder (F60.2) • F60.31 Borderline typethe patient's own self-image, aims, and internal preferences (including sexual) are often unclear or disturbed. There are usually chronic feelings of emptiness; intense and unstable relationships may cause repeated emotional crises and may be associated with excessive efforts to avoid abandonment and a series of suicidal threats or acts of self-harm (although these may occur without obvious precipitants). • Includes: borderline personality (disorder)

34. ICD-11 Survey Overview • Developed for psychologists by WHO and International Union of Psychological Sciences (IUPsyS) • Parallel to survey conducted by WHO and World Psychiatric Association (WPA) of 4887 psychiatrists in 44 countries • 2155 global psychologists participated • Recruited through 23 IUPsyS member national psychological associations in 23 countries • 10 low and middle-income countries • Administered in 5 languages (English, Spanish, French, German, Turkish)

35. ICD-11 2015 • ICD-11 will draw on research about how clinicians conceptualize mental disorders in hopes of creating a more intuitive and psychological classification system. • ICD-11 will be available for free on the Internet. • More than 70 percent of the world's psychiatrists use ICD while just 23 percent turn to the DSM. The same pattern is found among psychologists globally.

40. A diagnostic framework that attempts to characterize the whole person--the depth as well as the surface of emotional, cognitive, and social functioning; from healthy to disturbed in a mixed categorical -dimensional system

41. Psychodynamic Theory as a Complex Adaptive System-temperament, affects, cognitions, development, traumas, defenses, fantasies, attachments all interacting at various levels of consciousness.

42. The Psychodynamic Diagnostic Manual • Over-all level of personality organization (Healthy, Neurotic or Borderline) • Personality patterns and disorders (Temperament, conflicts, affects, cognitions and defensives) • Specific capacities of mental functioning (learning, relationships, self regard, affective experience, internal representations, differentiation and integration, psychological mindedness, a sense of morality) • The subjective experience of symptoms

43. P103. Psychopathic (Antisocial) Personality Disorder P103.1  Passive/Parasitic P103.2  Aggressive Contributing constitutional-maturational patterns: aggressiveness, high threshold for emotional stimulation Central tension/preoccupation: Manipulating/being manipulated Central affects: Rage, envy Characteristic pathogenic belief about self: I can make anything happen Characteristic pathogenic belief about others: Everyone is selfish, manipulative, dishonest Central ways of defending: Reaching for omnipotent control

44. Aggressive Subtype Explosive Actively predatory Often violent

45. Passive/Parasitic Subtype More dependent Less aggressive, usually non-violent Manipulator Con artist

46. Psychodiagnostic Chart (PDC)An Integration of the Psychodynamic Diagnostic Manual (PDM), ICD and DSM Robert M. Gordon and Robert F. Bornstein (both on the PDM2 Committee)

47. Goal of the PDC To offer a person-based nosology by integrating the PDM, ICD and DSM; this integrated nosology may be used for: • better diagnoses, • treatment formulations, • progress reports, • outcome assessment, • research on personality and psychopathology.
